    There was an unequally applied standard that appeared to be enforced based on cultural profile. The hostesses felt emboldened to enforce a standard to one group but not another. However, to managements credit it was addressed an apology given but please understand the impact on our entire party and the dampening on spirits for the apparent profiling what was meant to be a celebration started with a dampening of spirits. We were even dressed nicer then those they did not enforce policy.

    We came for my husband’s 40th birthday and they made it extra special with a birthday message on the menu and confetti on the table. Everyone was very attentive and the food was delicious! Will definitely return for another special occasion.

    Andrew, our waiter was astounding! He was very attentive, caring, and overall amazing with timing on everything. The only thing that was not to our liking was the fact we got seated in the "conference room"- this was outside of the main dining room. That's the only I aspect I didn't like/appreciate. Seating there takes away from the whole "steakhouse" experience. But Andrew was amazing and made us feel very special was great and much appreciated. I wish every waiter was the same- he deserves a special recognition when it comes to customer service. We frequent to Ruth's Chris often and I wish there were more of him in different locations... especially in comparison to San Diego.

    We had a wonderful dinner at Ruth’s Chris. Great service. Food came out all together and hot. We were very happy we chose this restaurant to treat our friends. I wanted my chicken not stuffed (as on the menu) and they accommodated my wishes. Delicious!! We will be back soon.

    The Caymus Wine Paring was a hit. The wine pours were generous. The host was very inviting. The food was superb. The staff was amazing. Brian and Jorge never missed a beat and Autumn inspired us to look for more events. Super win!

    The ahi tuna was very salty, and my steak was overcooked. My Server is very nice, just wish the food was better.
